Magical Girl Escalation Taylor (Worm/Nanoha)

Reader mode
[X] Vampiric Ray – Forcibly drain another's mana to refill up to 25% of your own pool. If target is not a mage, they are left permanently weakened and somewhat more frail.

[X] Accept – This solves so many problems, it would be foolish to turn it down.

Exactly, why risk it? Or worse them deciding that the planet is except for collateral damage to take us out. We would very much be reminding them of the book of darkness...

If they didn't kill us already, despite the fact we can be far worse then the Book of Darkness then they won't kill us over some spell.

Why do I mean worse... you do know that each mook that can be mass produced has superior potential then Nanoha.

My opinion is that they are already letting Taylor walk around with a WMD. If they were going to take action against her they would have done it already.

Oddly, I didn't get an alert for this chapter, instead getting one for SW responding to a question about the vote. That's something around ten hours after it was posted, despite refreshing both here and SB every hour or two to check on updates( SB in particular has several authors that post daily who I read).

Le sigh. Give me a minute to tear up the preliminary character sheet I made for Theo. I offer you a Breaker/Trump with five different power sets, and you turn it down. *shakes head*

I voted to keep him around. Any chance we can see that character sheet, now that it doesn't matter?

[X] Barrage – Upgrade for Rust Shooter. Fire four bullets at one time. Can be used with Homing Bullet but not other Shooter variants.

Despite every last plan I've come up with to use Rust Shooter has failed, I still think this is a very useful spell.

[X] Accept – This solves so many problems, it would be foolish to turn it down.

I didn't ask for this to happen because I thought it would stretching Dragon's generosity. Getting it offered freely by the GM is an opportunity I have no intention of passing by.

The Theo thing was a struggle for me. I ended up not voting, but I think the right choice was made in hindsight. Theo wouldn't have fit in with the team dynamic very well both for his pacifism and his trauma. Also, the more I thought about it, as versatile as his power might be, I'm not really sure how we would have ended up synergizing it into the rest of the team's tactical dynamic.

I am on board with @kamkong's suggestion of maybe a couple months down the road checking on him, Kaiden and Aster and maybe seeing what he can do with a Ziz-feather.

That, or in my case I'm frankly more interested in your original characters than yet another story with Theo in it.

I find it interesting how often I see comments like this with how rarely I see anything done with Theo at all, or little more than a cameo. I suppose it helps that I came to the fandom after the original story was completed. I've also only encountered two fics where Danny and Miss Militia were in a relationship, another thing I've seen many more complaints about than stories with.

Same here from what we've heard it sounds interesting and thought out.

Sure, why not?

In stone form, he can touch dirt or rock or concrete (basically anything you could legitimately call rock-like) and reshape it. Similar to his canon powers but with a more narrow focus. Gives him a battlefield control power.

In metal form, he grows larger and stronger, making him good for physical combat.

In wood form, he "plants" himself in a location and thereafter can teleport back to that location. It also lets him regenerate, as seen in last chapter.

In plastic form, he can create either directed or omnidirectional sonic blasts. This is the power he used as "Shard" during the final assault against MS-13.

And finally, his glass form. He can shoot laser beams for ranged fighting, and he can also use those beams as thrusters to let him fly Iron Man style.

All of his powers were inspired by canon members of the Empire. Stone was Rune, metal was Fenja and Menja, wood was Othala, Plastic was a combination of Stormtiger and Cricket, and glass was Purity. I was debating giving him a power similar to Hookwolf but eventually decided it wouldn't meaningfully expand his abilities.
 
[X] Lion's Pelt – Coat yourself in an additional defensive forcefield three times as strong as your Knight Armor for 10 seconds.
[X] Accept – This solves so many problems, it would be foolish to turn it down.

So, to clarify, is my idea of going to Theo and offering Endbringer material for a new Breaker form a bust? Or, if said social event wins a vote, would you hash out the powers he would gain then and there?

On the topic, I just spent the last few hours coming up with more Breaker forms that encapsulate the entire E88 powersets, including the Endbringer one, so that's a thing that now exists in my mind.

I'd figure out the powers he'd get if you ever did that. I'd be open to suggestions in that case as well since it is no longer on my priority list.
 
Thing is, story wise it didn't make sense for Taylor to recluit him anyway. Besides, it didn't help the order you listed the possible votes.

Also having a Parahuman on the team, who is also a former Nazi; would make the PRT mages like us less.

Enough about this, what are the alien mages doing?

It hasn't been a full 24 hours since the last vote, but I highly doubt either "Accept" or Vampiric Ray are going to be overturned anytime soon. I will update the character sheets in just a minute.

Some how I doubt a team with our kill count is going to be seen as PR capes. Corporate wetworks on the other hand could be something that sticks.
